“The best way to predict your future is
 to create it.”


Charles Ketterer


What this quote implies is that in order to move on with your life is to create a future for yourself. To think of what you imagine yourself doing in the future, will you have a big or small house, or will you want kids, or what you want to do later on in the future, that you will look forward to? Things like that.

“Bless you”

Whenever someone sneezes, most people say “Bless you” or hear someone else say words.



  Someone says “Bless you” or any other phrases as a sign to wish you good health or a long life since when you sneeze, you are obviously sick, they are just wishing you to get better basically. This phrase originated thousands of years ago with the romans. At first it was “Jupiter preserve you” or “Salve”, which means “good health to you and wish each other a “Long life”. Then the phrase “God bless you” came along from Pope Gregory the Great, who spoke it in the 6th century during the bubonic plague. The phrases for when someone sneezes are just wishing them to get better.

She chooses the right by calling the police right away and returns it to the owner with nothing in return but a good feeling.

History of Basketball


    Basketball started when a man named James Naismith from Canada came south to train kids in the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) training school in Springfield, Massachusetts. He wanted to follow his interests in physical education so he expanded on an assignment to create game that could be played in YMCA gyms during the winter. One of the first games involved 9 players on each side, trying to toss the soccer ball into a peach basket nailed to the balconies at the end up of the gym. Whenever they would make a basket a ladder was brought to retrieve the ball and the game was paused.


    This new sport first spread across the YMCA but the first public match that was made in 1892, made the new sport spread quickly across the globe. Basketball’s first professional league was founded in 1898, which 7 years before that the Nets had replaced the peach basket.



   Basketball is not that different has before except without the peach baskets, now its hoops.

What Cosell’s says is true because drugs used to be very popular in the old days. It was okay to smoke anywhere you go but it did not mean it was right or not harmful, later they found out it could cause cancer even by just inhaling the smoke.
